| cftbq | hiked at night ![]() Date Climbed: Jun 10, 2007 | |
| Left the Stewart Creek TH around 2 am and topped out shortly after sunrise. Not "exciting" by mountaineering standards, but it was 14er #29 for me, and #24 for trishapajean, and it felt good to check off. (Don't know why it took me so long to remember to post this.) | ||

| Climbed last after Baldy Chato, Column Ridge, Baldy Alto, San Luis, Baldy Alto again, then Stewart. Took 5:25 to summit Stewart from the Cebolla TH after doing the above circuit. I wish my finish was quick too: I took the Pauline Creek drainage and practiced bushwhacking willows for a while. | ||

| From Nutras Creek TH. Hike up was nice but ended up in a side drainage. Climbed Willow Mesa first then traversed to Stewart and Baldy Alto and descended ridge off Baldy Alto and back into Nutras Creek. Nice morning stroll | ||

| Stewart, then Baldy Alto, then "Column Ridge" (Pt 13,795), and Baldy Chato on the way back. Nice hike. Hiking on a weekday on a remote non-14er peak meant that I saw NO ONE! Afterwards, drove over to the Eddiesville TH for Organ Mtn the next day. | ||

| A 2-day trip. Hit Stewart along with Baldy Chato, Alto, Column Ridge & attempted Organ Mtn. via 'The Organ Pipes' (no dice). Bunked down for the night in Stewart Creek. Wonderful day! | ||

| The fall color was great. I only saw a couple of others across Stewart Creek, climbing San Luis. Stewart Peak offers an amazing vantage point on the edge of the vast San Juan mountains! | ||

| completed the long day(17.1 miles, 5290 feet) with a jaunt up stewart. tired legs really kicked in during the final upclimb from the saddle with point 13,795! descent out nutras creek was beautiful, and gentle on the legs. had a sidehill for a short peroid after the creek overflowed the trail. final two miles along the road was gorgeous with the yellow aspens everywhere! long, enjoyable day. can't wait for another! jamie | ||

| Car camped at Cebolla Trailhead. Trail initially hard to follow in dark(5:30am) even with flashlight. Once out of timber and with(sunrise), vision improved, following posts across willows, over B. Chato and along wonderful ridge to Stewart. Met only four other hikers who had ascended from Nutras Creek. Down at 4PM. | ||

| What a fantastic peak. Didn't see a soul on the hike. Really windy, but the pristine nature of the area made up for it. I really love the La Garitas. | ||

| Awesome mountain. Absolutely no people and you can tell this is a rarely visited summit (only 8 people had signed the register in June). We only saw one cairn all day but the route is obvious. We went up to the right into a basin to hit the ridge and then came down Nutras Creek the whole way on our descent. We used some snow fields to avoid the loose junk on the lower portions of the ridge to make things easier (no ice axe or crampons needed however, the angle is mild). | ||

| Four of us drove the dirt road from Slumgullion Pass to reach the Cebolla Trailhead. The road is good and though long, the ride was not bad. We saw several elk but no other people during the hike. Stewart is easy to climb. The highlight of the hike was hiking the ridge between Stewart and Baldy Chato. It is spectacular. The summit of Baldy Chato is also easy to reach and recommended. Weather was perfect. | ||

| I have questions! Is the dirt road to the Cebolla trailhead suitable for passenger cars or is high clearence required? How far up the trail do you go before heading to Baldy Chato? How is the footing on the traverse ridge to Stewart Pk? Class 2 or less? Thanks. slowbutsteady e-mail baxphoto@outdrs.net | ||
